My name is Suzanne Thompson. I enjoy photography, dining at non-chain restaurants, trying new vegetarian recipes, reading, blogging, and exploring new locations...the three most valuable are family, faith, and friends.
I was born in England, moved to Ethiopia when I was four, then to America when I was seven. In American, I have lived in eight states. Bob and I were married in January 2010 and we currently live in California and North Carolina.
My parents and I went back and looked at my house today. They had installed the granite and were starting to install the tile…very exciting! My parents left today, so now it’s just me and the cats. Nikoli and Fikus are feeling right at home again.
My parents arrived in CA this afternoon. When I got back to my apartment after work, I took them to see my new house. We were able to get in the back sliding door to look around. I was really excited to see that the wooden floor had been laid in the dining room and...
Today was my first day at my new job. It was uneventful at work, but outside there are fires burning not far away. At work people asked me if I had brought marshmallows and roasting sticks for the “campfire”. Another person welcomed me to Hades. Needless to say, the fires are some of the worst...

Today was my last Sabbath in Knoxville. In the afternoon, I went with the Gentry’s to the Smoky Mountains. The fall foilage was beautiful. The sky was so clear that we could see all the way to Mount Pisgah and Cold Mountain.
Today was my last official day of work in Tennessee. It was sad to drive away from the people I worked with and the company I worked for over the past 11 years. I couldn’t have asked for nicer people to work with. But as one chapter of life ends, another one starts. On Monday...
On Tuesday evening, I drove down to Chattanooga to have dinner at the Acropolis with Sharon. She gave me book mark with my name on it and the text, “Be strong and of good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest” Joshua 1:9....
In one week, I’ll be flying out to sunny California. I’m really excited about the new adventure of living somewhere new. I’m looking forward to seeing some clear blue sunny skies in the desert. Here is the model home of the house I selected. Looking forward to seeing lots of clear blue skies.
